This soft cotton/polyester/acrylic-blend heated blanket with satin binding promises no cold spots with its "Blanket with a Brain" technology that monitors temperature (we found it to work well). This blanket also has 10 different heat settings. One drawback: Sunbeam includes multiple products in its instruction manual, which made it confusing for consumer testers to figure out how to operate this blanket. The blanket uses 11 cents per night of electricity — one of the larger energy users in the test. In twin, full, queen, and king sizes, and three colors: breeze, honey, and winter white. sunbeambedding.com
